What spin-off of G4 would you like to see?

[ForeverGeek 58]

If you could choose a spin-off of FiM based on a character that didn't get a lot of screen time or had potential for their own show what would you choose?

Imo I would pick a spin-off that told the history of the foundation of Equestria, with characters like Tirek, Discord, Star Swirl etc.. with the main characters of the show being Princess Celestia and Luna and how they learned that they had the power of ruling the sun and the moon, how they became princesses and how they defeated Discord, Tirek and others.

None of them honestly, your idea is interesting, but I'm personally really fine with FiM the way it is, I don't think it needed a spin-off (Equestria Girls is a different thing), if it had, I would've enjoyed it, but I don't think it's necessary, they could very well just tell the story of Luna and Celestia in a short story arc of 4 or 6 episodes in the regular series, or in a TV special, I don't see the need in making a separate series for a story that is probably already planned to end with less than 20 episodes. FiM already tells stories focused in specific characters, and I think that tradition continues in G5

Its a shame that we never got a special/hub movie about the life of Luna before she became Nightmare Moon (The Rise and Fall of Nightmare Moon). I don't know if Laura Faust ever explained where Alicorns came from but it was never explained in the show. The timeline from when they were born up until Luna being banished isn't very clear. They were taught magic by Starswirl the Bearded until he and the other pillars sealed The Pony of Shadows away. Some time after that, Discord appeared. So Celestia and Luna discovered the Tree of Harmony and used the elements to seal him away. Not sure how Celestia knew what the tree was since pillars admitted that they didn't know what would happen with the seed that they had planted before the disappeared.

A special about Princess Cadence, from her humble beginnings as a Pegasus orphan raised by Earth Ponies, to her duties as the most grounded of Equestria's divine leaders. There's so much potential for her character that Hasbro has slept on.

This is the spin-off I'd like to see,

the lives of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna in a "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" sort of style where we see how their lives both were

leading up to and right after Princess Luna became Nightmare Moon.

Bat ponies, I need more bat pony! 

Also kirin spinoff, cause rainbows won't light up the sky unless you let it rain!

A prequel spinoff involving the royal sisters would be fun. Spinoff revolving around the hippogriffs, or any of the non-pony creatures would be really cool too.

I would love to see a spinoff involving Pinkie Pie hosting a sketch show featuring comedy routines, jokes, songs and party planning tips. The Pinkalicious Pinkie Pie Show!

A spinoff starring the Student Six could have worked. For what it's worth, many of the worst parts of seasons 8 and 9 could have been avoided by showing the Mane Six in their roles as teachers and having them, you know, teaching the episodes' lessons rather than rolling back their character development so that they could keep learning lessons they should already know.
